The Cool Crowd

This is a puzzle I don't seem to fit
All the sounds they like just seem like shit
I don't know if they're dumb or I'm getting old
There's a fire inside of me and I wish that they could see

There's more to this than what they seem to think
You've got to feel it, you've got to grow wit hit
Don't forget the past but get out and explore
It's not that I hate them but I don't fit in
Though there was a day when I tried to

Now I'm driving with my own song in my head
Cutting edge traditionalist
The cool guy with the biting wit
But the cool crowd seems way ahead of me or behind me

No matter what people say there's always pressure
But I can't be a slave to others ideas
I'm going to do what I want to, going to play what I want to
So at the end of the day, I can look back and laugh
